I have one on my 421 cub motor and stock radiator, and has worked great so far with no overheating but I only have about 8 hours on the new motor. But from what I've been hearing from people on this site it is a good investment expecially since you already have the clutch cover off.

I would say yes to the impeller as it is a reliability issue more than anything else. The OEM units fail without warning, in which case you find out it failed too late out in the middle of the dunes. :biggrin:

Once the plastic one goes, your done for the weekend. And don't get a modquad billet impeller! Someone on here a few weeks ago had to mill it down because it didnt fit. And do yourself a favor. Mount a temp gauge somewhere. Me, i mounted mine behind my right light.

when i first split my case i noticed my clutch basket was like that so i found a good deal on a parts banshee and pulled off the side case to notice that that one was the same. it has some play between the hub and the gear behind it. as far as i know thats normal.

the play in your clutch is not normal it happend to mine and after a while it started knocking i replaced it with a wiseco forged basket it was expensive but well worth it! and as far as that impeller goes get the pro design i have had mine for a year now and it works great

I also got the pro design one and it dropped my temp 10+ degrees. :thumbsup:

by the way if u want a stock basket i have two of them in great shape i will sell for cheap just let me know hope this helps

i would definitely change the impeller for a pro design billet one, along with a new bearing and seal. the stocker WILL fail, it's inevitable. and like firehead said, it will happen at the worst time possible, of course.

the play in the clutch basket is 'normal', as in it's a very common problem. what it is, is there are rubber cushions that sit in pockets between the basket and the large gear that you see attached to it, and they get worn. my understanding was that if it has more than about 1/4" of play, or movement, then they need replaced. less than 1/4" shouldn't be a problem but keep an eye on it. the cushions cannot be replaced on a stock basket. the gear is riveted to the basket and once taken apart cannot be put back together. so you would be in for another basket. an aftermarket basket comes with screws to replace the rivet set up, and the cushions can usually be replaced as needed. :cool:

Well thanks for the help..... i just put a stock impeller in caz i called around and most people said they are the same..... So if it fails it fails when it does well idn. My cluch basket is something im gonna watch but it is so little play that it shouldent make a difference i hope. THANKS again
